Sunways STH 3~8kW series single-phase hybrid inverter is designed in accordance with grid 
operation standard, and conform to the requirements of the safety and EMC. The inverter 
had passed a series of rigorous tests to ensure it runs sustainably and reliably before ship-
ment. When a fault occurs, the corresponding fault messages will display on the OLED dis-
play, and in this case, the inverter might stop feeding into grid. 
The fault messages and their corresponding troubleshooting methods are listed below:

7 Troubleshooting

Error Message

Solution

Mains Lost

① Check whether the mains supply is lost.
② Check whether the AC breaker and terminal are well connected.

Grid Voltage Fault

① Check whether the impendence of the AC cable is too high to 
lead the grid voltage increased. Change a thicker AC cable if it is. 
② Extend the voltage protection range if it is allowed by the electricity 
company.

Grid Frequency Fault

① Check whether the AC cable is correct and well connected.
② Change to another country with wider protection range if it's allowed 
by the local electricity company.

DCI Fault

① Restart the inverter.
② Seek for help from the installer or manufacture.

Error Message

Solution

PV Power Low

① Check if part of the PV array is sheltered.
② Check if the sunlight is sufficient at the PV installed area.

Bat OV

① Check whether the battery voltage exceeds the upper limit of the battery.
② Check battery terminal wiring.

Backup OV

① Restart the inverter.
② Check the inverter Backup side wiring.

Bus Volt Low

① Restart the inverter.
② Seek for help from the installer or manufacture.

Hard Fault

① Restart the inverter.
② Seek for help from the installer or manufacture.

Backup OP

① Reduce loads connected in the Backup side.
② Restart the inverter.

Inverter OV

① Restart the inverter.
② Seek for help from the installer or manufacture.
